My husband and I came here only a few times because we lived in La Florida (on the other side of…read morethe city), not because of the food or service. This little eatery has a funky, friendly, and peaceful vibe, and it is relatively cheap! The only thing is, each time we went there, they were already out of the daily specials which sounded great. But I understand because Santiago is simply not a vegan city. It's getting there, though! We will definitely eat there when we visit my in-laws in STG next time! I'll also recommend it to my fellow vegan travelers heading to Chile.

Easily my new favorite restaurant... on the planet. Incredible staff, incredible food. Will…read moredefinitely be coming back the next time I'm in Chile! Also worth noting, a few blocks away (also on Ricardo Cummings) is an 100% vegan shop, called Emporio Vegetal, which is incredible. Definitely would recommend stopping here for dessert after having a delicious meal at Govinda's!

Pros: They have very…read morenice menu with variety of options from Chilean food to international dishes. They even have Chilean fusion with European dishes. Filete a lo Pobre was good. Wasn't the best I had but, if you're craving for one and you're in the area it's the only option. Their octopus dish looked great but I can't tell if it is good since I didn't have that. Cons: The service was bad. When we got there the waiter told us there's a 30min wait while the outdoor seating area was empty. We sat outside. I ordered Filete a lo Pobre(steak dishes), but they didn't bring me a proper knife for the meat. I ordered hot sauce and the only option they had was merken (dried pepper spice). The beal took more than ever to arrive while the place was half empty.

Un excelente lugar para tomar café al paso, o trabajar en un ambiente grato o almorzar o incluso…read moredesayunar. El café es fabuloso en todas sus versiones y, si son mañosos como yo, hacen la versión como uno lo quiera, aunque no esté en la carta. Tienen una variedad exquisitas de té y hierbas aromáticas naturales, y hacen la infusión como se debe. Para el desayuno, recomiendo los huevos revueltos con queso que son una delicia con tostadas. Tienen, además, un menú para el almuerzo muy balanceado y rico, que incluye entrada, fondo, postre, pan y jugo natural (de verdad y no embotellado). Si a todo esto le incluimos wifi gratis y terraza para fumadores, este café es un tesoro en la ciudad de Santiasco :)

I have been there by a recommendation of a friend. And I can tell you that I was not disappointed…read more I usually had the "Pide" with minced meat and cheddar when I was there, which is really delicious. Afterwards I also had a turkish coffee which was also quite nice. I did not try other meals in there. By the way, some of their food is halal. But better ask the staff to make it sure before you order.
